Tunkwa Provincial Park (sometimes known as Tunkwa Lake Park) is a provincial park on the northern Thompson Plateau in south central British Columbia, Canada. The locality is by road about 16km (10miles) north of Logan Lake and 27km (17miles) south of Savona.

Established in 1996 on the Tunkwa Lake Road, the 5100ha park encompasses the man-made Tunkwa Lake and Leighton Lake. This year-round recreational area offers trout fishing, horseback riding, camping, hunting, and snowmobiling. Many ATV trails surround the park. Although the park is open year-round, full use campsites are available from May 1 until October 12. The Tunkwa and Leighton campgrounds hold 275 vehicle-accessible campsites.[1]
